Moreover the scripture saith to Pharoah, For this very thing have I raised thee up, that I may shew my power in thee, and that my name may be declared through all the earth.

But Isaiah is very bold and saith, I was found by them that sought me not: I was made manifest to them that asked not after me.

For this cause ye pay tribute also: for they are the ministers of God, attending continually on this very thing.
